Christmas comedy film Code Name Red with Dwayne Johnson has already grossed $84 million in cinemas

It's still more than a month before the New Year and Christmas, and cinemas are already showing a themed film, Code Name Red One. And it's even doing well at the box office

Here's What We Know

The New Year's Eve comedy starring Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evanson has already grossed $34 million in the US and $50 million worldwide, for a total of $84 million.

Although it was released earlier abroad than in the US to avoid competition with Gladiator 2, it is clear that it worked.

In fact, Amazon planned to immediately show the film on the Amazon Prime streaming service, but decided to show it in cinemas first.

The film cost $250 million to produce, and in this situation, it seems that the $84 million raised is not much, but Amazon believes that Code Name Red will raise the most money from streaming, not cinema. And the film itself will be shown until the winter of 2025, so it has every chance of paying off.

The film tells the story of what happens when Santa Claus is kidnapped and the head of the North Pole security service must team up with the world's most famous bounty hunter to save Christmas.
